Farewell Dr. Thesing!

dr thesing

As of August 27, 2021, Michael J. Thesing, MD will no longer be available for appointments. After much thought and consideration for his and his family’s needs, Dr. Thesing made the tough decision to move away from private practice and join a group of doctors providing in-house hospitalist roles at various hospital facilities.  He remains in the area, but will only be working in the hospital setting.

Dr. Thesing had been a part of South Bay OBGYN since December 2019; we remain grateful for his time here with us and we wish him well in his future endeavors.
